History of the Queensland GPS Head of the River rowing regatta

Open Four - The University of New South Wales Trophy

 

The University of New South Wales Rowing Club was instrumental in establishing Schoolgirls rowing in NSW during the early 1990’s. The club was responsible for the development and coaching of girls from Sydney Girls High as well as conducting races for Schoolgirls as part of its Regatta programme. The first “Head” race for Eight was conducted by Mosman Rowing Club at Davidson Park in 1991 and was won by Sydney Girls High who also won the first Open Four Race. The trophy was donated by the University in 1994.
